When Spokeo wins
Spokeo's homepage lists old friends, property owners, court records, email owners and social profiles, and says it has run since 2006. If you are looking for a person rather than judging a number, it covers more ground.
When Ms. Number wins
You already have the number and the question is "is this safe?" Ms. Number's App Store listing mentions dating matches, marketplace buyers and unfamiliar contractors, and adds one-tap blocking.
Caveats
Ms. Number's reports are user opinions. Its site also says it is not a consumer reporting agency. Spokeo's homepage describes itself as a source of "public data"; read its own terms before using it for any formal decision.
